Tips:
- Ensure your meatloaf mixture is well-combined and evenly distributed before cooking to achieve a consistent texture throughout.
- Use a microwave-safe dish that is large enough to accommodate your meatloaf without overcrowding, allowing for even cooking.
- Cover your meatloaf with plastic wrap or a microwave-safe lid during cooking to retain moisture and prevent splattering.
- Cook the meatloaf in short intervals, checking the internal temperature with a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches a safe minimum of 160°F (71°C) for ground beef.
- Let the meatloaf rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meatloaf.
- Experiment with different glaze variations to suit your taste preferences. You can use a combination of ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce or explore other options like barbecue sauce, teriyaki sauce, or honey.
- Consider adding vegetables like chopped onions, bell peppers, or carrots to the meatloaf mixture for added texture and nutritional value.
